A two-day extensive dialogue cum capacity building workshop on developing Law curriculum in Pakistan was organised here at National Academy of Higher Education (NAHE).
The workshop was conducted in collaboration with the Warwick Law School, University of Warwick, United Kingdom, says a press release issued here on Wednesday.
Following the decision of the Supreme Court in August 2018, the HEC has initiated revamping and rewriting of the law curriculum. This workshop is an initiative in this direction. An important aspect of this initiative is to simultaneously provide opportunities for those tasked with delivery of the curriculum to be exposed to teaching and learning approaches in the jurisdiction beyond Pakistan.
Dr Shaheen Sardar Ali, Professor of Law at Warwick Law School was resource person for the workshop. She is a fellow of the Royal Society of Arts and Associate Member of the International Academy of Comparative Law.
